    Naqvi’s writing is sharp and witty. Abdullah is lovable. The story does drag a bit in the middle.

    Enjoyable, but at times confusing. There are moments of brilliance but not consistently.

    A good book, but I was hoping for more. I love reading the description of the city and felt lost at times.

    Naqvi’s prose is beautiful, but the story felt a bit disjointed at times. Still, worth reading.

    I enjoyed the humor and the exploration of aging, but the plot felt a little scattered.

  14. Niharika Sharma

    I laughed out loud several times! A heartwarming story about finding purpose later in life.
